Germany from a Jewish Perspective
A Different History from the Eighteenth Century to the Present
Shulamit Volkov masterfully weaves together various Jewish perspectives on revolutions and wars, political movements and ideologies, and social and economic circumstances, painting a new picture. She lets us see the Enlightenment through the eyes of Moses Mendelssohn, the Congress of Vienna from the perspective of its Jewish delegations, and the revolutions of 1848 from the standpoint of the victims of anti-Jewish riots. The Liebermann family and Walter Rathenau experienced the German Empire, World War I, and the beginning of the Weimar period in a different way to non-Jewish Germans. Bertha Pappenheim, Käte Frankenthal, and Hannah Arendt shaped the interwar period in their own unique ways. Schulamit Volkov pays special attention to the Holocaust, World War II, and the decades that followed. In this concise book, the author shows how German and German-Jewish history are inseparable.
